Just playing solitare!

I ran into Wilco whilst perusing the virtual worlds of the net vis a vie Second Life. This song, garnered there, struck a chord in me! So not an icon of thought, just an old man's late night thoughts.
Hey! Either you like your shit or not! The bottom line..

'Took too long to think (or see)
I was wrong to believe in me only...'

Two thoughts this night. One was how I must have felt, could I have felt, as I entered into this world as an infant and whose first taste of oxygen on virgin lungs must have been horrific. All of us newborns everywhere were subject to the pains of lost wombs, yet destined for new incredible horizons. Life then happened in a blur. Most of the time spent in not really seeing time. I was way too obsessed with event horizons.... I suspect that was true for most all of us.. And then, way before I was ready.. Old(er) age cemented itself to me like an unwelcome guest. Suddenly, time had passed.

Looking back, even surviving to be called 'old' was an honor of a sort. Too many good friends had  fallen by the wayside over the years. I can't say that I really noticed it at the time, but later that pain grew ever sharper...

My future: It was that event horizon thingy I fell into day to day, decade to decade.... until then... Suddenly, and way before I was prepared, the next birth canal awaited in my immediate future. And I wondered, should I plunge into the next awakening head first or feet first.... or did it even really matter? [Turns out, it never did! God has caught me, every time!] My God has never left me - I was always in close and intimate contact. Figuring out His path for me, in this life, has been an ongoing discovery...

'Teliometric spindles so fresh and so pure!

At each infant's birth, so strong and so sure!

Each cell that does so divide...

Keeps silent count, by which it must always abide.

Time moves on, and we all will surely see,

each person's gene's expressed from both of thee.

Then, as it happens, some grow of older age,

with teliometric shredding their end times prophetic sage.'

For those looking to see more - There's always Psych 401...

Wilco. I'll fight!

This video compilation is all about America today. It's about the heart of good Americans everywhere, and why we will always fight even to the death, to preserve our freedoms!

God Bless the United States, and damn to Hell those who seek to destroy the millions who have sacrificed themselves on the anvil of freedom!

Good men will always seek to find good women and then will hope to begin a family. And so, a community does arise. Add just a dose of luck, some hard work and a church in which to center our hopes and...well enough said by this aged gnome... 

Where is God today? He's here, He's always been with us through the years. We walk, live and love under His light. For He is the bright star shining above our heads every day in our worst of times and in the best of our times!

Wilco. One Wing.

Wilco. Chill out and please listen, this be a pretty good number... our internal domestic and national political battles will go on... But, there is an eagle still flying up there above our great Republic...even if she is hurting....if you don't get this, please move on.

We once belonged to a bird
Who cast his shadow on this world
You were a blessing and I was cursed
I did my best not to make things worse for you

It isn't true, I always knew this would be our fate
This is what happens when we separate
This happens, all dead weight, eventually

We may as well be made of stone
We can't be flown...

One wing will never fly
Neither yours nor mine
I fear we can only wave goodbye

One wing will never ever fly
Neither yours nor mine
One wing will never ever fly, dear
Neither yours nor mine

I fear we can only wave goodbye

One wing will never ever fly, dear
Neither yours nor mine
I fear we can only wave goodbye

The true meaning of this song (for me at least)....Think of the American Eagle soaring overhead... Think of this great Republic and what it represents to the world. Think of the freedoms we all have enjoyed... And now, please think of how we will not move forward, each on just one wing... as a Nation so deeply divided.... Let's get it together people, PLEASE!

A large majority of citizens, for some time now, have nibbled intellectually at the edges of both the Democratic and Republican ideologies. Many have no clue or even care to have one. They truly have been acting as sheep... But, now they are being readied for the shearing... For, I do so believe that God's eye is now swinging back our way. If we should lose this Republic, then the world loses and the forces of very real evil could overwhelm us all....At that point, we might as well go jackin it on a street corner in San Deigo...

U&I

No video here, just a good sound by a band name Wilco - I'd encourage everyone to check them out and to buy their music via Amazon.... just a good sound and a nice listen.
